The growing number of suicides by
college students will be studied in a
documentary program on the Nebraska
Educational Television Network, July 24.
"College can be Killing," a one-hour
program beginning at 7 p.m., looks at
how universities and colleges deal with
student stress, anxiety and potential
suicide.
The program visits two university
campuses. An analysis of Northwestern
University examines factors that could
contribute to student depression, includ
ing single-room housing, untrained
instructors and residence hall assistants
and keen academic competition.
In contrast the program indicates that
the University of Wisconsin offers
programs to help students deal with
anxieties, tensions and loneliness and
the school actively promotes its clinical
services. Students and staff are taught to
recognize a student in need of special
attention. The program urges parents to
investigate a school's emotional support
before deciding which school their child
should attend.
